Works for me Wednesday - deoderant marks on shirts

I have never done this before - mainly because I am still so new at this whole "be-a-wife-have-a-house" thing. But I am participating in "Works for me Wednesday" by Rocks in my dryer.

Let's see how this goes.

I struggle with always leaving white stripes on dark pull-over shirts from my deoderant. I have tried rolling the edge of the shirt up before I put it on, then the stripes just are higher on the shirt - sometimes even on the outside of the "pit" area. I have tried putting on deoderant AFTEr putting my shirt on - but then one of two things happen. Either I have deoderant all over the inside of the shirt - or I am in such a hurry by the time I get to putting my shirt on, I forget the deo!! (Needless to say - this is a tragedy!!!) So, I have learned a trick... that will remove the white marks left from that frustrating stick... without leaving wet marks everywhere... PANTY HOSE! Who knew there was actually a GOOD use for the torture device? Put your hand in one leg of the hose, rub over the white streaks and it actually will remove the deo marks!

While I am now in the habit of rolling the shirts, so I still catch myself with white marks remarkably high on the shirt.... at least I can get them OFF now.... AND, I needed something to use my left over panty hose from when I traveled with Wings... Lord knows I am not going to actually WEAR them!!

Who am I?

A wife, new mom, former and future(short term) Christian missionary, ex-Project Manager for BellSouth, musician(where my education actually lies), political assistant, adjunct college professor, and "wanna be" world influencer... living in southern Virginia. I am originally and will always be an Alabama girl.
